I need a name

[TheEldritchGod]

I need a name for someone that is a horrible pun on "Red Shirt", "Expendable Extra", or "The guy who is gonna get killed by the villain to prove how evil he is". It has to be a NAME, hopefully, a noble-sounding name, but a name of some sort. The point is, the MC has a universal translator and sometimes it translates the names of people to reflect their "true nature" and I need a name that when the MC hears it goes, "Wait a minute..." Then looks over, then notices that the guards in the room aren't guards he's familiar with, and he figures out with his "narrative sense" that the whole thing is about to go sideways.

Kenny? Kenny always dies. Or Kenedy for more nobility.

Literally 'Guy'.

Cant get more generic than a guy named 'Guy' (Coincidentally Guy Redshirt is the name of my DnD character. A basic human fighter who is average in every single way.)

Cloud.

Bob cause it's bland as hell

This one has potential. It sounds all Nobility.
Although I like "Guy Red-Skjort" Hrmm...

 

[Deleted member 113259]

Here are some other names for red in Latin.

• Ruber
• Rubicundus
• Rubeus
• Rutilus
• Ruddy

 

[TheEldritchGod]

Oh wait... Maybe Guy Red-Tunic. Too on the nose? But it's supposed to be on the nose.
Anyways. Thanks everyone. That helps.

Rotte von Kleidungst

Play on german words and made more 'noble' sounding. "Rote Kleidung" means "Red Clothes".

Rotte von Hemdall could also work. (Rote Hemd)

Baldich Todt

"Soon, I die."

Rotte von Kleidungst

Red of clothes?

 

[Zinless]

Red of clothes?

Red(e) from Clothes(ed)

Doesn't make sense, it's for a name after all.

They guy is going to die, but the name actually is what gets the Guy killed, because the MC expects him to get attacked, and tries to protect him, but does so in the wrong way, because he thought 'red shirt'. It's a bit of an ironic twist thing.

 

[Zinless]

I'm not creative enough for a name like that, but I assume you'll have him say death flag lines as well.

"After this, I'm finally going to propose to Jessica back home!"
